Kinetic characterization of gyroxin, a serine protease from Crotalus durissus terrificus venom

Biochimie, 2012
This work describes for the first time the characterization of the enzymatic features of gyroxin, a serine protease from Crotalus durissus terrificus venom, capable to induce barrel rotation syndrome in rodents. Measuring the hydrolysis of the substrate ZFR-MCA, the optimal pH for proteolytic cleavage of gyroxin was found to be at pH 8.4.

Neutralization of the effect of Crotalus durissus terrificus venom by gangliosides.

Brazilian journal of medical and biological research = Revista brasileira de pesquisas medicas e biologica, 1996
We determined the ability of a mixture of gangliosides (16% GD1b, 19% GT1b, 21% GM1, 40% GD1a) to neutralize the effect of Crotalus durissus terrificus (Cdt) venom in vitro and in vivo. Protection was indicated by the absence of muscular contractions, hind limb paralysis or death of BALB/c mice (16-18 g) after receiving Cdt venom (1 microgram Cdt venom

EFFECT OF Crotalus durissus terrificus (LAURENTI, 1768) VENOM ON THE EVOLUTION OF EHRLICH ASCITES TUMOR

, 1997
The effect of Crotalus durissus terrificus (LAURENTI, 1768) venom on the evolution of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells was evaluated. Thus, 30-day-old male mice of the Swiss strain were inoculated intraperitoneally with 1x10 tumor cells.

Antivenom against Crotalus durissus terrificus venom: Immunochemical reactivity and experimental neutralizing capacity

Toxicon, 2017
The venom of Crotalus durissus terrificus produces a neurotoxic and myotoxic syndrome that can lead to the death. Specific antivenom is the only treatment to neutralize the toxicity of the venom and the precocity in applying the antivenom is crucial for the efficiency of the treatment.
